SAR since the day it was built and opened (Chelsea 1968 I think).
Prior to that stood on the mud mound that became the SAR stand.
Have sat in all the stands for the odd game here and there but you can’t beat the view from SAR. |

Totally agree. For years now I’ve been ignoring anything football apart from us and the Championship and been perfectly happy.
Last night however, drinking with a few mates who i’d best describe as top six supporters, sat through Arsenal Bayern for my first 90 minutes of Champions League football since John Terry ‘hit the post’. Either the screen was speeded up or at LR we are playing a very slow motion version of modern day football. |

The overground will likely grind to a halt approaching Kensington Olympia, different type of intruder on the line game by game, at least that’s what we get told. Expecting Wildebeest this week. |

Our last chance of taking six points off someone this season. Let’s hope our centre backs have got their shooting boots on. |

If Preston fail to win at Southampton tonight, Norwich could put them to bed at home to Bristol before our game even kicks off.
Chances of Coventry still having skin in the game by the final match is also slim.
If we fail those tests we fully deserve to end up in league one. |

Ska, skinheads, gangsters, the ‘RA’, set in the early 1980’s. This Town has been pretty good on the Beeb. |

Know little about Gilchrist but when he signed a new contract an interview with him on CFC website said he’s been at Chelsea since he was in junior school, no mention of us whatsoever.
Was he one of ours or loanee/A Trialist? |

100%.
Cannon offers nothing at corners either end of the pitch and we were constantly conceding, for those with short memories.
There are very few teams like Hull, Cannon probably a better option for games like this but for the bulk of games, Dunne is far more useful at both ends of the pitch. |

Still believe we have a nucleus of a good side that’s burdened by the most inept forward line in living memory.
I’d clear out Dykes, Smyth, Willock. If the Chair situation enables a sale, then sell, I think he deserves the opportunity to see if he can step up elsewhere. Armstrong is never a CF, loan him or let him go, if he doesn’t look a fit in a new forward line. Kolli, loan out.
Give Andersen some proper forwards to aim at, he’ll come good. Frey a bench man who could still be useful. Our centre midfield has no room to breathe because of the crap forwards, give them a realistic out ball, they’ll be fine.
Defensively, I’m good with them all. Paals form has dropped off, but after two years being Chairs decoy I reckon Kenny Samson would have thrown the towel in. Fckin appalling how he’s become Chairs stooge.
Oh, and a new keeper. |

If you ever needed a CDM who spent a large portion of a 90 minutes going backwards and sideways to the RB, Massimo’s your man.
Field, Colback and Hayden are far better players largely handicapped by the clowns in front of them.
Never quite expected this renaissance he’s had at Ipswich, not least he failed at clubs after he departed LR, but perhaps it sheds some light on this place that for so many years now, fails to get the best out of what we do have. |

I get the desire for the safety of horses but, watching today, they may as well replace the fences with a pile of cushions.
After the first circuit the jumps resembled hurdles with the whacking great holes that bad horses now get away with ploughing through.
The race has completely gone as a unique spectacle. Racing will be finished the way it’s going. |
